Seems good to me.

In advising its player reps on rookie pool, NFLPA projected Cam Newton would get $22M over 4 yrs and, another $14.3M in a 5th-year option...

But with that 5th yr being an avg of top 5 salaries at his position, it can only be an estimate for now. So they estimate $36.3 over 5 years

NFL.com reporting Newton's contract could be worth $36.3 over five years. which pales in comparison to Sam Bradford's $80 million last year.

A bunch of money, but nothing compared to what it was or the direction it was headed.

I don't know if the system will work, its still a rookie pool. Rookies can still negotiate a better deal. There's just a cap on the total amount of money that teams have to spend on Rookies. The big question is did owners and players limit option bonuses that rookies can get as that's what ruined the last rookie pool.

Rookies can not negotiate another deal, nor the team until the 3rd year of contract.

Wishing he was locked up longer and I still say it is not a positive but oh well.

If he is the real deal under the old rules he would be a bargain until the last year of the contract. If he ends up being the real deal now, he gets his 100 million dollars from somewhere and a 10 year deal at age 25 or 26 rather than still being under control for 3 more years by us.

    • It’s simple. Win and everyone in here will say the culture is good. Dear lord the amount of time spent on these posts is hysterical. We’ve seen the end of season swoons where you can tell the team had given up with many of the same leaders that took us to playoff seasons. When your OL is decimated by injuries, it’s amazing how fast culture turns. When you get on a tear like 2015, everyone’s having fun. You need the right people regardless, but they have to win.
    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.
